Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 28/06/2026The Necropolis chapter of the Treasure Overhaul is up on Patreon. Featuring 1d100 Grimoires, for all your wizardly / cultic / inadvisable loot needs. www.patreon.com/coinsandscro... 2322
Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 11/04/2026Hrm, High Tech has a pretty good selection of the first 3. And for the last one... well, I guess you'll have to wait to find out. 😁 020
Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 11/04/2026Working on the last 3 chapters of the item section of the Treasure Overhaul. What Genre / Special items would you like to see? More details on Patreon (free): www.patreon.com/posts/treasu... 12358
Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 06/04/20261d20 Lost Treasures. Where are the other 10? On Patreon, along with a treasure map generator and other useful tables. www.patreon.com/posts/treasu... 1304
Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 29/01/2026Draft Goblin Market page / handout from the Treasure Overhaul. Special deal, toady only. 0452
Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 24/01/2026Druidic magic items are a bit tricky, conceptually, but I think this is a pretty solid list. 2362
Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 21/12/2025The Automata chapter of the Treasure Overhaul is now available on Patreon. 3 compact pages of steampunk / cogfop / weird west / inadvisably advanced technology goodness. www.patreon.com/posts/146326... 1302
Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 01/12/2025Want a compact 3-page dungeon generator? Get it on Patreon: www.patreon.com/posts/144804... Empty rooms, traps, special rooms, room treasure, and plenty of helpful tips, all in a highly compressed utility-focused format. 0191
Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 14/11/2025Resembles, but isn't the same. I think M&T is using its own methodology. Here's Level 5. Many more magic items than in either AD&D or B/X, and some of the entries are doubled up. 110
Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 14/11/2025@icastlight.bsky.social OK, here's the Level 1 table in the same format. It's not pre-rolled AD&D results (the values are off) and it's heavily coin-weighted. 100
Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 14/11/2025More charts! I'm looking into various "room treasure" tables. Once again, the average value is misleading. Gems + jewellery dominate if present. 2150
Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 07/11/2025128 pages of the Treasure Overhaul, now available on Patreon: www.patreon.com/posts/143059... Page after page of never-before-seen WIP items, spells, and the entire Sage chapter. 3368
Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 05/11/2025I've put (non-magical) luxury good lists in the Sage chapter. Inventing names for famous pieces was a lot of fun. 010
Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 03/11/2025Two full-page Treasure Overhaul previews in one week? 1263
Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 01/11/2025The Doom Scroll is a pretty heinous gag, but did you catch the Scroll of Elevation. 230
Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 30/10/2025Affinity's big announcement: AI slop. Hooray. Just what literally no one asked for. 2251
Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 29/10/2025So A2 is similar enough to A1 that I'm not worried. A3 (Pirate Treasure) is uniquely jewellery-loaded, which makes sense. You could approximate it as 2xA1 but if I wanted to model it accurately I'd need to add a new type... and I'm not convinced that'll be useful. 110
Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 29/10/2025Testing out a compact treasure table. Since the average value of a complex roll can be misleading, I've added a d10 multiplier table to spice up the average if you don't feel like rolling normally. 3170
Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 28/10/2025Also, Tourmaline is kind of crazy, as far as gems go. "I think we've finally figured this 'electro-magnetism' thing out." "Splendid, Maxwell! Does it explain why this gem attracts ash when hot?" "It... it what? But... but magnets... but..." 140
Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 28/10/2025@kaponkie.bsky.social @icastlight.bsky.social Hopefully this meets both of your requests. 🙂 390
Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 27/10/2025Here are the major OD&D charts. It should be obvious how just looking at the average value is misleading. 170
Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 27/10/2025Spending my Sunday squinting at charts. For Treasure Type A, OD&D and AD&D have fairly similar values and distributions, despite using different methods. OSE, though, with its fixed (3d6x100gp) jewellery value and 50% chance of 1d2x1,000 platinum pieces, has a very different curve. 1151
Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 24/10/2025Here's a tweaked version I'm using for OD&D. Might be handy. @dysonlogos.bsky.social as usual gets all the credit for an excellent and timeless design. 1143
Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 24/10/2025I've also created an OD&D hexcrawl. www.patreon.com/posts/od-d-h... Not every hex is keyed, but major locations are included, treasure is pre-rolled, and some emergent factions and quests are ready to go. 2525
Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 23/10/2025I wrote a 3-level OD&D dungeon. The key is available on Patreon. It's not fancy, it's not complicated, but it is a dungeon, and sometimes that's all you need: www.patreon.com/posts/od-d-o... 0447
Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 18/10/2025Myths, Legends, and Folktales to sprinkle into the background of your setting. 0362
Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 16/10/2025In the criminal justice system, the people are represented by two separate yet equally important groups: the Watch, who investigate crime; and the Judicial Minotaurs, who disembowel the guilty. These are their stories. 35410
Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 16/10/2025So "Zone of Truth" makes trials trivial, eh? Well not anymore. 0409
Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 13/10/2025Why hire an expensive doctor when magical healing is available? Let the expensive doctor offer some unbiased reasons. 2537
Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 25/09/2025And here's Astrology. Generate a flattering horoscope or predict a death. 3416
Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 25/09/2025Still working on the Treasure Overhaul. Here's a preview of the Sages chapter. Enhance your alchemists. 4587
Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 16/05/2025E.F. Knight found them eerie enough, though by this point he was suffering from exhaustion and dehydration. archive.org/details/cu31... 020
Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 20/04/20251d8 Dangerous Techno-Relics, because sometimes, the loot has to be worth fighting for. Some items will alter the setting. Some will alter the map. 3398
Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 25/03/2025Techno-Trinkets, for your fallen earths or time-blasted settings. What will the PCs do with the Hand Punishment Pain-Cube (Toaster) or the Rolling Sky-Pulpit (Scissor Lift)? 2253
Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 16/03/20251d20 sci-fi grenades, for OSR games with crashed starships or dangerous fruit trees. Picking up an unlabelled bag and throwing them at enemies is not required, but it is traditional. 2429
Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 10/03/2025Part of the problem is that I don't want to duplicate other effects. A lightning sword, a vorpal sword, or even a sword that lets you fly are all non-High-Tech effects that just require a dash of reflavouring to use in a sci-fi context. Take these gnomish items for example. 240
Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 10/03/2025High Tech weapons, for those times when generic medieval-ish OSR PCs loot a downed spaceship, extort a time traveller, etc. 25411
Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 24/02/2025Even more WIP items from the Meatworld section of the Treasure Overhaul, including some cursed items. Well, they're all a little bit cursed, but these ones are _properly_ cursed. 2172
Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 22/02/2025Consumable items from the Meatworld section of the Treasure Overhaul. A sprinkling of body horror to season your game. 4293
Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 15/02/2025Still working on the Treasure Overhaul. Here are some items from the "unusual theme" section of the book. Specifically, the Meatworld (temp. name) section. Arms, Legs, Glands, and Organs. For exiled biomancers, daemonic surgeons, and wizards with wriggling things in jars. 1334
Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 15/12/2024It's pretty good. I've had players use it as a rainshield, to run along treetops, and to lure a blind monster over a chasm. 010
Skerples @skerples.bsky.social · 15/12/2024I've just released the full spell list for the Treasure Overhaul on Patreon: www.patreon.com/posts/118022... 41 pages of Druid, Cleric, Illusionist, and Magic-User spells in a compact and ready-to-use format. 3293
